AN ASPHALT DEPOSIT.
A Mine of the Material Which Should
Provo Valuable to Memphis.

Correspondence Of the Appeal.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. lin letter
from Nashville l alluded TO q bed OF asphalt
um in Lawrence county, Ala, near the
Memphis & Charleston road, in which
Memphis is deeply interested, as she can
get the best and cheapest material for max
ing pavements from that quarter That
bed has been examined by skilled geolo-
gists, as well is practical men, and they
have made reports. One OF these reports
has been placed in my hands, and from it
| make some important extracts.
''The principal deposits OF asphaltum oc-
cur in sandstone ridge that projects for
hall mile or moro in northerly direction
from the range OF hills known as.the Sand
mountains. The Tennessee river forms
the northern boundary of the county
(lawrence) and follows, in n general way,
the direction OF the mountains. A broad
and fertile valley. from ten 10 fifteen miles
in width, lies between the mountains and
the river. In the immediate vicinity OF
the asphaltun beds arc immense deposits
OF iron ore. OF the very best quality, that
might readily be worked with great profit.
The area lying between the Mem
phis q Charleston railroad AND
the iron ore and asphaltum de-
posits is almost perfectly level, and u
switch can be run out To them from any
point on the railroad ut comparatively lit
tie expense. There is an infinite amount
of the very best Of timber for the manu-
facture OF charcoal iron. Tho rock CON
tanning the asphaltum is fine grained
sandstone, and IL remarkably free from
other mincralimpuritics. To prepare this
rock for use il is only necessary to crush it
in an ordinary stamp-mill or quartz
crushcr, pass the crushed material through
steel rollers, slightly heat it, and then press
| it into bricks of suitable size for pavement
or other purposes. Bricks made Of il by
hand are very hard. tough and elastic, and
capable Of sustaining great pressure. The
beauty, durability and other desirable
features Of asphaliic pavements are too
well known TO require description"
A sample scraped up from the surface
containing many impurities not found in
the material taken from the rocks was
analysed by Prof. Clifford Richardson, in
specior OF asphalis, Washington, with the
following results:
